Roll With The Punches

Wow, this wasn't the conversation I expected to have with Richard Smith, the Keto dude. Here's someone with an story to tell. From anxiety, addiction, depression and obesity to a complete transformation, mental, physical and emotional.

In the midst of hearing about this Richard also opened up for the first time about a volatile relationship he spent 7 years in, so we touch on a little bit of that... Needless to say, this conversation will be continued.

Today we self-reflect. I (now this is nothing unusual) have been feeling increasingly introspective over the last couple of years... and like a snowball that get's more momentum along the way. After last week's episode I became curious around my ability to articulate my thoughts in a way that they would land in line with my intentions. So after briefly discussing this before the podcast we decided it would make for a great topic on air... and so press record we did!

Enjoy.

Close your eyes. Imagine your hands clasping the steering wheel, your foot planted firmly on the accelerator, the speedo well over 200kph and rising... A tree, the perceived antidote to your suffering.

One fleeting and blessed moment was enough for Michael Donehue's brain to come back on line in time to change course, pull over and realise this wasn't what he wanted. Sure the pain and suffering would come to an end, but at what cost? Almost his life.

Michael is an incredible sharer of his experience, with the ability to speak openly and honestly about mental health through his lens. This conversation is deep, candid and raw. You'll adore Michael and his Journey Apparel cause.

What do you get when you cross a bobsled, boxing gloves and a bouquet of flowers? Isabella Rositano, that's what! This girl is a weapon of a human and my latest adopted podcasting bestie. 

You've likely seen her on SAS Australia, perhaps you even recall her launching across the Ninja Warrior course. Less likely however, you may recall Isabella rocketing down a bobsleigh course (hardly a common Australian pastime) or even competing as a champion canoe-er (what do you even call a person who canoes).

These days I'm more than thrilled to talk about Isabella's latest sporting love which is boxing, so it's fair to say we are basically soul sisters now. She sure is someone who's setting the tone for women in sport... I'm more than a little bit inspired myself after this chat.

I've been a fan of intermittent fasting for years and have read books, asked experts, googled my heart out, 'researched' and put to the test my findings to the best of my ability with great results and satisfaction.  However...  it stood out to me that the vast majority of this information was being presented by men, for men.  Nothing against men and the information they present however it too often left either a gaping hole (at worst) or a poorly constructed disclaimer (at best) when it came to how fasting applies to women, our hormonal cycles and menopause. 

Dr Mindy Pelz was quite the find on this topic, if I was excited before we met then I was 10 x excited by the time we finished this episode. The information presented covers the science around our hormonal cycles and how fasting interacts with what our body produces and to what effect. I fire some of my burning questions her way also to discover the ideal protocol for fasting for body composition vs fasting for strength or athletic performance, when does autophagy kick in and what enhances or disrupts autophagy, if females don't take our cycle into account is it better to fast 16:8 consistently (like blokes do) or avoid fasting at all?

I'd say 'enjoy' but I already know you're going to love this

Doesn't it just seem like the world is getting increasingly __________ (fill in the blank), lately? Aaaaaah confirmation bias, have you heard of it? 

Confirmation bias is 'the tendency to interpret new evidence as confirmation of our existing beliefs or theories'. Today Bobby and I chat about this and how important it is to be aware of it. Social media algorithm further fuel our confirmation bias by feeding us more of what it knows we like, read or watch. 

Good chat I think... But hey, I'm pretty bias.

Today I'm having a yarn with Helen Kapalos.  Helen is an accomplished journalist, presenter and executive producer with over 20 years’ experience, Helen directed, produced and appeared in a ground breaking film on medical cannabis. The film was acquired by Netflix and SBS Television and was screened nationally to Australian audiences. So of course we talk a bit about medical cannabis today, once I got out of the way with my fascination re hearing about the (sometimes confronting) life of a journalist.

Some people think all runners run for the running (like some people think all boxers box for the boxing). Couldn't be further from the truth at times. 

Most of the time it's not about the running at all. It's about the metaphoric one-foot-in-front-of-the-other, it's about the consistency, it's about the connection, it's about the one thing that we can control when so many things we cant - turning up.

Todd & Trent are the founders of 440 Run Club. A bunch of crazy humans that get up at the crack of dawn to run at 4:40am before the world wakes up. They talk about what's behind the 'running' and why it matters. Community, culture, connection.

Oh yeah... and because of these guys I signed up for a Transcendental Meditation course and thus committed to a life-long daily practice!

How do we get good at things? Are you a fast learner or a slow learner? Is one better than the other? What leads to skill development? When should we quit? 

This week Bobby and I work our own way towards putting another penny in our podcasting mastery bank as we talk about just what does it take to get good (or great) at things. 

Enjoy!
